Wilson Benesch directors Christina and Craig Milnes will be appearing at premier German dealers Hifi Linz Bach, in Bonn this coming weekend. The event will be held over 2-days and include a presentation of the Cardinal loudspeaker and Torus Infrasonic Generator.

The open weekend will provide a rare opportunity to meet with the Wilson Benesch directors and gain a fascinating glimpse into the intricacies of the ground breaking Cardinal design from the designer Craig Milnes.

The Cardinal presentation will be conducted in partnership with German import partners Taurus High End and will also feature the Soulution Electronics which were featured in Cai Brockmann’s Cardinal review in Fidelity AV Magazine earlier this year. The full system architecture is listed below, along with a link to Cai’s review of the Cardinal in both German and English.

Of all the great and grand speakers, on this earth, the Wilson Benesch is possibly the most beautiful. The awe-inspiring price here comes with awe-inspiring performance and a sensational dynamics – Cai Brockmann, Editor, Fidelity AV, 2014

Perched on the eastern edge of the Rocky Mountains at a height of 1600m, the city of Denver and its mountainous surrounds have become the backdrop for one of the USAs leading audio events, the Rocky Mountain Audio Festival. Established in 2004 by the late Al Stiefel, this year will be the 11th Edition of the show.

A popular theme of the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest has been the seminar series. Taking place over the duration of the weekend, the RMAF seminar series is designed to impart a deeper knowledge of the audio industry to those attending the show, with discussions moderated by designers, engineers, company owners and a variety of industry experts. This year, Roy Gregory and Marc Mickleson from online publication, www.audiobeat.com, will contribute to the seminar series with two presentations.

Cartridge Optimization For Musical Performance – Roy Gregory
This lecture will aim to address the intricacies of cartridge alignment and how it affects sonic presentation. The lecture will be heavily reliant on live demonstrations and to quote, will define “not just the difference between approximate and ultra-precise alignment, but the musical difference between different geometries; the affect of tiny shifts in VTF, VTA/SRA and azimuth and how they each affect the sound. In other words, we’ll be demonstrating how to step beyond setting your cartridge by eye and instead set it by ear”.

Are All Discs Created Equal? – Marc Mickleson
The lecture will aim to address the physical differences between optical discs. The demonstration will play different versions of the same recording and asking for the audience to rate/rank them. Asking, can you hear the difference between a standard CD and a gold disc? Are SACDs taken from analog or 16 bit/44.1K tapes really better than the originals?

Both Marc and Roy’s presentations will be conducted on a carefully selected high-end audio system using the Wilson Benesch Square Five Loudspeakers throughout.

There will be multiple opportunities to see each of the lectures, but they will be conducted in the same room each time, Marriott Room 9022, 9th Floor Tower.

Wilson Benesch are proud to announce that the Japanese Premier of the new Endeavour Loudspeaker will take place at the Tokyo International Audio Show on the 23rd – 25th September 2014. In partnership with premier importer Stella Inc. Wilson Benesch return to Tokyo with it’s groundbreaking super monitor which has already impressed globally following a hugely successful launch at the Munich High End Show in May.

The Endeavour borrows much of its design dialogue from the flagship Cardinal, featuring a beautifully sculptural carbon top and sleek ‘black carbon’ baffle and spine. The Endeavour introduces new Wilson Benesch technology in the form of the Carbon-Nanotech Enclosure, the world’s first advanced composite midrange housing. This isolates the midrange drive unit air volume from the powerful Isobaric Drive System. The result is a wonderfully coherent and natural midrange section, coupled with powerful, dynamic bass which cannot be achieved by large woofer designs. The Endeavour is a tour de force of British engineering.

Further to the Endeavour demonstration, guests will also have the opportunity to listen to the flagship loudspeaker in the Geometry Series, the Cardinal. Each demonstration will be supported by an introduction from Wilson Benesch Directors, Craig and Christina Milnes, along with introductions from manufacturers, CH Precision, who will be launching the new L1 Preamplifier with the Cardinal and Constellation Audio, who will partner the new Inspiration Series Preamp and Stereo Amp with the Endeavour.

It is almost exactly one year since the Wilson Benesch brand launched with Forthwise Ltd in Hong Kong. Wilson Benesch has enjoyed a strong following in Hong Kong for over a decade and now, but the market has recently enjoyed the introduction of new the Geometry Series product line thanks to the professional service and support of Forthwise Ltd.

Following the launch of the Cardinal last year, this weekend customers at the Hong Kong AV Show enjoyed the South-East Asian Premier of the new Wilson Benesch Endeavour loudspeaker.

Partnered with Nagra electronics and finished in Burr Walnut the Endeavour dominated the room in front of an impressive backdrop revealing the groundbreaking Carbon-Nanotech Enclosure at the heart of the new design.

Further to the musical demonstration, Forthwise presented the Endeavour’s many technical merits to a packed audience. Every detail of the design, its execution and quality sets new standards; the Endeavour is peerless in this sector of the luxury high end market.
